HAPPENINGS

The Grand Final is heading upstairs.
The StandardX, Melbourne is teaming up with local legends Stomping Ground for a rooftop takeover above Fitzroy, bringing the game On Top with Stomping Ground Stripes buckets, footy-friendly snacks, giveaways and a big-screen setup made for watching every kick, mark and questionable call.

To welcome spring, we’ve teamed up with Up a Little, the local artist-led platform championing emerging creative talent, to curate a collection of works that capture the season.

Reading Party Melbourne is bringing its cosy, curated reading evenings to The StandardX for an exclusive three-month residency this winter.

(Sorry you missed it!) Two hours of sun-soaked selection on our rooftop, with a special pour featuring ST. ALi’s Italo Disco blend.

Watch this space for the next event coming 23 October 2026.

No small talk. Just $3 oysters and happy hour drinks every Friday at Bistro X and On Top.

Leave the thinking to us. Five courses of seasonal standouts. Come hungry.

It’s hard to go past a marg when it looks this good.

On Top brings you Margarita Sundays – a rotating lineup of the perfect rooftop drink.

We’re dialling up the mystique with a monthly night for cocktail lovers and the cosmically inclined.
